[QUOTE="Trolle, post: 1516036, member: 86801"] I was experiencing difficulties in syncing iMessages across my MBP, iPad, and iPhone. A friend sent me an iMessage which I did not receive on my MBP, so I followed the steps suggested in a previous thread: on my iPhone under iMessage settings the setting: You can be reached by iMessage at: Which has my cell phone and 3 email addresses (gmail, iCloud and me) shows the cell phone number check marked but greyed out. On my iPad the settings are the same but the phone number is not greyed out Just curious why that is. Plus, on another note: if I send an iMessage from my iPhone to someone but they are not online should the message not revert to an SMS (I have the Send as SMS when iMessage is unavailable...)? A friend sent me an iMessage but I did not receive until I was back within wifi coverage. Would have liked to have gotten that message as an SMS. [/QUOTE]
